C.Y.A from the BON with Maggie Ortiz, MSN RN of Advocates4Nurses
Say it with me, now “Cover you ass from the Board of Nursing…..”
In this episode (recorded in the spring of 2022), Adrianne welcomes Maggie Ortiz, nurse and expert witness for medical malpractice and administrative law. She’s an outstanding advocate for nurses and is here spilling the tea for you.
In this hour, Maggie and Adrianne discuss things like:
-Advice for nurses to protect their licenses while working bedside
-Oversight (or lack thereof) for United States’ Boards of Nursing and her experience as an investigator at a state BON.
-What is Jurisprudence and why she thinks all nurses should understand it.
-Things nurses have been reported for that required they defend themselves and their licenses.
-What can happen if you’re sanctioned by a BON.
This information, while it can bring up anxiety for some, should be understood by every license-holding nurse. Check out this lively and informative conversation, and then go follow Maggie’s social media for more valuable tips, tools, and advice.
